As a Tyhee shareholder i am curious about the actual mining operation for Tyhee once it's up and running. Would the mine operate year round, i know it's friggin cold in Yellowknife during most of the year, however i'm assuming the annual tons mined number is based on 12 months of mining correct. Can the weather effect production in that climate? I'm assuming the miners have some kind of heating in the mines etc. what are the risks versus a mine in Quebec or B.C. regarding mine shutdowns or is this a non-issue.

I'm a dedicated follower of this discussion board and after reading all the posting regarding share price blah blah blah i thought i would change the mood a little with some practical mine operations questions to bring the focus back to the nuts and bolts of the business which is actually removing the gold from the ground. Anyone that can give a general overview of how this mine will operate day to day would be appreciated. I'll be in our own ice house in Chicago for the Blackhawks game tonight where i hope we produce a positive feasibility exercise against the Ducks. Regards, Pat.
